Requests - clones, sequential, and parallel
Runs can have clones, runs can be sequential, and runs can be in parallel.
To clone a request
Sometimes, you may need to reuse a request. The request may be the same that you created for an old project. The cloning helps you to reuse a request without having to start again to create a new one. A request is in another stage and a run has been completed. So, you are able to use this idle or complete request for your latest purpose.
- Click the Lifecycles tab.
- Click open your required lifecycle.
- Select the check box for the request that you want to reuse.
- Click the Add to Run tab. The following dialog box appears:
- Select the run from the Run drop down. The cloning is default as you can see that it is marked with a yes.
- You need to add requests from the Add Requests button.
To run a request in sequential or parallel
- Select the Lifecycles tab.
- Click open the required lifecycle.
- Select a run from the Show all request (or select a run) drop down.
- Click the Reorder Run tab and when the requests open, drag and drop to run in sequence or in parallel.
- Click done reordering.
